The property was established in 1979 and further planted in 1996, but the core premium wines are made from their Burgundian varieties. All the fruit is 100% estate grown, and is farmed on small blocks with varying elevations and soil types, giving a unique palate to work with in the final composition of the wines. Hailing from the Bannockburn wine region north of Geelong in Victoria, farms from their 13 hectares of cool climate vineyards. The vineyards are located on the hillsides above the Moorabool River, offering cool climate influence for the grape growing.
Sourced from some of the oldest Pinot Gris vines in Victoria, planted 1996, the fruit gives depth and palate weight to the final wine.
From 1996 plantings. Cold soak on skins overnight; 20% fermented in French oak. Bright green gold. Another compelling gris from Clyde Park with its aromas of cranberry, pear skin, white flowers and a little spice. The palate is textured, energetic and poised, a fine thread of acidity keeping it taut and refreshing. A top-flight example.
